woro settled, but when tho salary

there was a general pxplonlon, Coun

clashing at onco.
Upon presentation of tho salary

for tho past three months. Council

allow payment, and Councilman Voll

"Produco them hero so wo can see

I IRRIGATION
State Engineer Cupper
Points Out That State
Still is Considerable
Distance From Goal.
Hrrnlil Mnlern Ilureau
SALEM, On, Juno 7. (Special.)
Tho Irrigation of 3,000,000 or 4 -
000,000 acres In Oregon Is tho ulti
mate expectation In reclamation do
velopmcnt .according to Porcy A
Cupper, stato engineer. That the
stuto Is stlri a considorablo distance
from tho goal Is shown in tho fact
that out of 1,300,000 acres now
organized as irrigation districts,
lonly about 300,000 acres have boen
Irrigated, leaving about 1,000,000
acres now awaiting reclamation,
Mr. Cupper does not agree with
those who bellevo that Irrigation de
velopment should be exclusively n
federal enterprise, but bcllovcs much
of Oregon's reclamation develop
ment must bo by prlvato capital.
Mr Hum Needed
"It Is probablo that It will require
175,000,000 to comploto the recla
mation of tho lands now Includod
In irrigation districts," said Mr.
Cupper. "It will, of course, bo many
years bvforo some of these lands
are reclaimed. However, it Is ob
vious that thcro is room for tho ex
penditure of largo sums of money
In our Irrigation development, and
If carefully expended will return
Imraonso revnua andUsubstantlally
Increaso our taxable -wealth.
"Thcro are thoso who bollovo that
Irrigation development should bo ex
clulsavly a federal enterprise. Whll"
Indorsing the excellent work which
tho United States reclamation sor
vlco has dono, 1 am of tho opinion
that much of the reclamation In
Oregon must bo dono by private
capital, for tho reason that the fed
eral government will not in tho sear
future mako available sufficient
funds to carry froward tho work
as rapidly as tho demand therefor
will come. Many of the smaller
projects of necessity will be com-
pellcd to finance with prlvato capl-1
tal, oven though conditions of suchj
financing aro much more ad verso j
than tho conditions under which the
federal government undertakes re
clamation. Allotment Made
"Tho United States reclamation
sorvlce has made an allotment of
$400,000 to bo expended in tho con
struction of tbo Deschutes project.
